Interesting. Self-serving to say the least by the BU guy because for years
I think Maine's rival has become (as it should be) UNH. I think those two
should play a game soon, like maybe Friday in Orono? Sound ok to everyone?
Anyone remember the last time they played?
Wasn't Howard recruited by BU, yet chose Maine? Paul Kariya was another one
recruited by BU who ultimately decided on Maine -- and they tried HARD to
land Paul. There are many players recruited by both schools who had to
choose between one or the other.
